Fully read ahead a mounted gdrive folder

[asdffdsa (jojothehumanmonkey)]

welcome to the forum,

@Steve_Bachman

I just want it to read the entire mounted folder ahead

• rclone md5sum a:\ > nul
• rclone cat a:\ > nul

and might want to increase --drive-chunk-size

but, by default, rclone will expire files after one hour, so might want
--vfs-cache-max-age=9999h

@Steve_Bachman

updated with said changes immediately. (if not possible, I wonder if there is a way to trigger it to update any recent changes without reading the entire thing again.)

--poll-interval

@Steve_Bachman

couldn't figure out this stuff on my own

check out my summary of the two rclone caches
